    That thing will just clutter up your house and it will end up in a garage sale in a year or two. NO.

    sweeet, i want it, but screw paying $30 for shipping. I can't stand ebay sellers and their idiotic shipping prices. "I have this HD-DVD player for sale.. starting bid is $1 ONLY!!!! BID NOW.... . ... .. . shipping is $499"

    I know what you mean but these guys high shipping charges are probably a result of him being in Hong Kong, according to his Ebay information.

    I'd pass, international stuff takes forever to arrive and the chance it'd break in transit is extremely high.

    The reason the sellers do that is to cheat by not paying much final sales price fee. They would only have to pay Ebay the fee for the $1 final sales price, but not for the shipping. I think Ebay has been cracking down on that recently though.

    Yeah they have regulations against unreasonable shipping cost but I think someone needs to report a seller, it's not something they police themselves

    in this case I guess, but about 80% of ebay sellers charge ridiculous shipping fees. atleast this guy has an excuse. still too much if you ask me. considering it could break or something.
